The World Swappers by John Brunner
A secret cabal of immortals struggle to deal with First Contact
between human and alien, whilst simultaneously wrestling with the
threat posed by one visionary, overconfident rich man.
If memory serves, there was a character named Falconetta, and the
cabal had a way of upgrading the new bodies they created for
themselves (better, faster, stronger).
